For each statement, indicate whether it is true or false Osmosis is the active transport of water across a selectively permeable membrane.    Aquaporins increase membrane permeability to water in some cell types, such as kidney cells.   During osmosis, water moves from a solution with proportionately more water across a selectively permeable membrane into a solution with proportionately less water.   Osmotic pressure is the force that assists water in moving by osmosis across a selectively permeable membrane.   The greater the concentration of a solution (the less water it has), the greater the tendency for water to move into the solution, and the greater the osmotic pressure to prevent that movement.

In osmosis, water moves across a selectively permeable membrane from a solution ofA.higher solute concentration to a lower solute concentration until all of the water is on one side of the membrane.B.lower solute concentration to a higher solute concentration until all of the water is on one side of the membrane.C.lower solute concentration to a higher solute concentration until equilibrium is reached.D.higher solute concentration to a lower solute concentration until equilibrium is reached.
